Proverbs 3:8-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
8
It will be healing to your body
And refreshment to your bones.
9
Honor the
Lord
from your wealth,
And from the first of all your produce;
10
Then your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine.
11
My son, do not reject the discipline of the
Lord
Or loathe His rebuke,
12
For whom the
Lord
loves He disciplines,
Just
as a father
disciplines
the son in whom he delights.
13
Blessed is a person who finds wisdom,
And one who obtains understanding.
14
For her profit is better than the profit of silver,
And her produce better than gold.
15
She is more precious than jewels,
And nothing you desire compares with her.
16
Long life is in her right hand;
In her left hand are riches and honor.
17
Her ways are pleasant ways,
And all her paths are peace.
18
She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her,
And happy are those who hold on to her.
King James Version
Chapter 3
8
It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
9
Honour the
Lord
with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
10
So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
11
My son, despise not the chastening of the
Lord
; neither be weary of his correction:
12
For whom the
Lord
loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
13
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
14
For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15
She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
16
Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
17
Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
18
She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
8
This will be healing for your body
and strengthening for your bones.
9
Honor the
Lord
with your possessions
and with the first produce of your entire harvest;
10
then your barns will be completely filled,
and your vats will overflow with new wine.
11
Do not despise the
Lord
’s instruction, my son,
and do not loathe his discipline;
12
for the
Lord
disciplines the one he loves,
just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights.
13
Happy is a man who finds wisdom
and who acquires understanding,
14
for she is more profitable than silver,
and her revenue is better than gold.
15
She is more precious than jewels;
nothing you desire can equal her.
16
Long life is in her right hand;
in her left, riches and honor.
17
Her ways are pleasant,
and all her paths, peaceful.
18
She is a tree of life to those who embrace her,
and those who hold on to her are happy.
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
8
Then you will have healing for your body
and strength for your bones.
9
Honor the
Lord
with your wealth
and with the best part of everything you produce.
10
Then he will fill your barns with grain,
and your vats will overflow with good wine.
11
My child, don’t reject the
Lord
’s discipline,
and don’t be upset when he corrects you.
12
For the
Lord
corrects those he loves,
just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.
13
Joyful is the person who finds wisdom,
the one who gains understanding.
14
For wisdom is more profitable than silver,
and her wages are better than gold.
15
Wisdom is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
16
She offers you long life in her right hand,
and riches and honor in her left.
17
She will guide you down delightful paths;
all her ways are satisfying.
18
Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her;
happy are those who hold her tightly.
English Standard Version

then your barns will be filled with plenty,

11
My son, do not despise the
Lord
's discipline
or be weary of his reproof,
12
for the
Lord
reproves him whom he loves,
as a father the son in whom he delights.
13
Blessed is the one who finds wisdom,
and the one who gets understanding,
14
for the gain from her is better than gain from silver
and her profit better than gold.

She is more precious than jewels,
and nothing you desire can compare with her.

11
My son, do not despise the
Lord
’s discipline,
and do not resent his rebuke,
12
because the
Lord
disciplines those he loves,
as a father the son he delights in.
13
Blessed are those who find wisdom,
those who gain understanding,
14
for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.
15
She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
16
Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.

Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.

those who hold her fast will be blessed.

And strength to your bones.
9
Honor the
Lord
with your possessions,
And with the firstfruits of all your increase;
10
So your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine.
11
My son, do not despise the chastening of the
Lord
,
Nor detest His correction;
12
For whom the
Lord
loves He corrects,
Just as a father the son
in whom
he delights.
13
Happy
is
the man
who
finds wisdom,
And the man
who
gains understanding;
14
For her proceeds
are
better than the profits of silver,
And her gain than fine gold.
15
She
is
more precious than rubies,
And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.
16
Length of days
is
in her right hand,
In her left hand riches and honor.
17
Her ways
are
ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths
are
peace.
18
She
is
a tree of life to those who take hold of her,
And happy
are all
who retain her.
